    McCullers will never pitch for the Astros, write him off. I thought the backend would be solid but they all got lit up, poor start but nothing a 6 game win streak wouldn’t cure.

      Well, nothing to get excited about so far…

      And the old excuse of “it’s early in the season” bullshit doesn’t seem to be bothering the Yankees…
      I miss the America I grew up in.

        A loss is a loss, and a win is a win, doesn't matter what point in the 162. You will need somewhere in the neighborhood of 90- 95 wins to make the postseason. The faster you get to that number, the more you can massage your lineup to make your post season run easier, with rest for your starters, and experience for your bench. That said, I see they have moved J Abreau down 1 spot in the order. Is it too early to start bitching about him batting in the middle of the order with a .000 avg. ? I know his post season numbers were pretty good, so maybe we wait till then to get him out of the 9 spot.

          I have used FUBOTV for several years. Now I can't watch the Astros live, it just says is being recorded. Anyone else having this issue?

              That’s one way to keep the bullpen from blowing a lead.

              Kudos to Blanco on his first no-no and to the Astros and Espada on their first win of 2024.

                  Wow, that very well may be the best overall performance of an Astros team as I’ve ever seen.

                  I’ll eat my previous frustrated words !!! Hell of a win to comeback after 4 opening losses.

                      Well I missed it. Turns out it was a Roku situation, but resolved it just now.

                        Pinch runner who can't run bases without falling down, check!

                          Hall of Famer gets hit by a slow hit ground ball between 2nd and 3rd, check.

                          Then the same Hall of Famer gets picked off at third for the last out in the 8th, check.

                          I’ve never seen an MLB team/Altuve run the bases as poorly as the Astros going back to last year.

                          Nevermind, they had the lead off batter reach base on 6 of the last 7 innings and 0 runs scored. 1st and 3rd with 0 outs in the 7th and 0 runs. I thought this was suppose to be one of the best offenses in all of baseball?

                          Then you get your high dollar closer who loses a lead for the second time in 4 outings.

                            So that's what happened? We were at the game and it looked like he tried to slide half way to second. WTF>
